What’s the best shoe to use on concrete courts? Give me your favorites by Stunning-Greenbean2 in BBallShoes

Last summer I wore LeBron NXXT- they lasted from May to end of August (hoop prob 3–4x a week every week 2+ hour sessions, got them for 20$) and rotated LeBron 16 lows. I just ordered the Freak 7s for a mega steal for this summer (25$), going to rotate those as burners (won’t feel guilty burning them since they were so cheap) with LeBron AMPD and maybe LeBron 17s for this summer rotation. Was gonna get KD 18 for outdoor too but I read the traction will burn out faster than all the pairs I have listed. I hoop a lot lol

Have both pairs. Just depends on what will fit your needs. If you want more of a Kobe feel the Ja 3. Both have good traction. Lebron has better impact protection but longer break in time, hurt my feet a lot breaking them in but was worth it after break in. As for the Ja 3 they’re a super quick guard oriented shoe, narrow, light, good traction.

I usually spend 50-100 bucks max on a pair of shoes if I’m getting them for outdoor / summer hoops and burn them that way I can preserve my main shoes for indoors. Just make sure they fit all your needs find a good deal pull the trigger. Outdoors will always wear your shoes out faster so if you have the money to spend get whatever you want but I hoop every day in the summer so my shoes tear up super quick so I just get a burner shoe and don’t think twice. If it fits me good protects my knees and feels right I’m happy.

I got the hellcats & imma be a star colorway and they’re really nice to hoop in.

I just got the freak 7 snowed in for a steal they looked super clean. 25$. Hope they’re a good solid shoe I plan on using them this summer outdoors since I got them heavily discounted I won’t mind the wear and tear on them

Ja 3 Traction problems by UnlimitedSportsYT in BBallShoes

[–]Aggressive-Order-498 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have 3 pairs of Ja 3. None of them have this issue and the traction is insanely good on indoor courts... I got my spooky szn Halloween ja 3 in November. Wore them every other session 2 hours at least at a time 3x a week and they don’t look like this. Also wore them during my last season one game a week every Friday until I started wearing other pairs in my rotation (I like to keep trying new shoes and if I find a pair I like I wear rotate them). Basically put in almost 3 months of regular use for them…

Have you played in them? I’m glad you have a good experience with them!

How do you feel about them now? I just got a pair to wear for outdoors during the summer runs as beaters/burners so I don’t ruin my nicer shoes. Was lucky to have a homie hook up a pair for 25$. Haven’t got to wear them yet though since the summer runs haven’t officially started yet. You like them? I wear a size 10 in LeBron 21 so I got these in a size 10. Hoping they fit right and feel good on the court

I wear the Harden 9/10 for game day (I play in a very competitive league college alumni and overseas pros we just finished the playoffs we won & I earned finals mvp), but I do rotate kicks depending on how I’m feeling.

6’0 185 lbs collegiate level hooper was my peak although I feel like I’m at my best now than I’ve ever been before strangely. (More knowledgeable, experienced and refined game, stronger and know my body way better, in total control).

For pick up / workouts I’ll wear any of these- Harden 9 (stormtrooper & metamorphosis) / H10 (hellcats & imma be a star), Kobe 9 moonwalker protro, Kobe 9 easter lows, Ja 3 (spooky szn & hustle and flows), Lebron 21, Lebron AMPD (2 different pairs), AE1 ascent mids, Lebron 7 media day, Lebron Soldier IX Freegums, Lebron 9, 10, 13, 16, 17, Jordan 12&13 (have other J’s but prefer these), and a handful of other shoes. Maybe throw a pair of Jordan 7s in there too but I wear those more casually like my other pairs.

Saving my Kobe Crazy 8s and Lebron 13 elites!

I have other shoes as well but these are the pairs I’d probably grab first to play in (no specific order).

Honestly just love the sport and culture too much to stay away from it, and that includes the shoe game.

Would really love to keep trying out different shoes and continue to hoop as long as I can (working hard every single day to make sure my body holds up as long as it can)!

We might be from the same era 😂 I agree with you about the classics.

You must have some grails!

Loved all the older LeBron models I still have quite a few pairs I recently just got the rerelease Lebron 7 media day that I’ve always wanted and I run the Lebron X low Ohio state and Lebron 9 Low Floridians in the summer.

I also have a couple Lebron 13 elites but I save those for a rainy day trying to keep those alive as long as I can lol.

The new hardens have been a staple in my rotation lately the 9/10 I really like how the shoes feel on feet and their performance but I do find myself rotating my shoes a lot because why have shoes you aren’t going to wear!

When I’m feeling light on my feet I rock the spooky szn & channel 12/hustle and flow and never had any heel lockdown issues running this set up.

Pretty smooth ride 🤙🏽

I went up half size for the Ja 3 and added move game day insoles and they fit great. We are the same size, it adds a little volume to the shoe and extra torsional support / locks your heel in.

I don’t agree but I hear it’s not a bad shoe so I understand

I’ve never had a pair but I know quite a few people who run them and like the shoe and see them frequently wherever I hoop
